    Funny Bass Shirts

    I wonder if I should wear one in church on Sunday morning when I play with the worship team? Dem people are too uptight sometimes :bassist:

    I'm always the last to know....

    Yeah, so a couple weeks ago I was fortunate to see part of the Progressive Nations Tour when it stopped in Albany, NY. I was mainly interested in seeing Dream Theater for the fourth time. Also on the bill I got to see Zappa Plays Zappa and was really blown away by their bass player. I've seen a...

    Anybody gig with 2x15's ?

    What's a TL606 box? Those Carvins look pretty good, and look awesome for the price. Those Bag End cabs look SCHWEEEET! I have never seen or heard them in person but hear great things about them. Hopefully I come across some between now and next year when I really plan to upgrade my gig rig!

    Anybody gig with 2x15's ?

    there's a used Mesa 2x15 EV for sale here in town... I dunno tho, I have a ruptured disc in my back so I have to be really careful. Anybody know what those babies weigh offhand? I seem to do okay as long as I keep the individual pieces under 70lbs or so, preferably even less

    i tried some 5ers and 6ers! my thoughts...

    Yeah don't give up yet, they ARE out there. I bought an awesome Yamaha bass used at GC for cheap that has a fabulous low B. Better than the used Warwick on the wall next to it for 4x the $$. Not that I'm slamming Warwicks by any means, just saying you don't have to spend a fortune to find a good...

    Anybody gig with 2x15's ?

    Everywhere I go I see the 4x10 cabs and I must admit I feel a little bit of "peer pressure" to get one. Right now I am gigging with a GK Backline 210 with a GK BLX 1x15 bottom. I want to get another cab and just assumed I would get the 4x10. But, if I just get another 15" bottom, it will cost...

    ESP standard Btl-5?

    I don't know that bass personally but it looks like it has all the best features of my two main basses: One is an ESP LTD B-206SM six string and the other is a black Yamaha RBX775 5-string. I'd be curious to hear more about it once you get yours ;) I like the active EQ in the ESP far...

    Raw speaker replacement for GK Backline 210??

    Thanks Rick---I've been out of the game for a Long Time>>>> we didn't even have the internet before when I was doing this and I had to rely on salesmen in stores and the drunken ramblings of people I met in bars!! (who knew all about equipment, and technique, and how to organize a set list, and...

    Raw speaker replacement for GK Backline 210??

    Wow- thanks for the quick responses. :cool: I'll give it a real close listen at the gig tonight and see if I can tell for sure if it's just one or both speakers. I located the direct replacement on the GK website and it's basically the same cost as the Eminence anyway.

    Raw speaker replacement for GK Backline 210??

    Sorry for the long post, it's a simple question but here's the background: I've been running my Backline 210 on top of a GK 15" bottom, both internal and external are 8 ohm loads so my math tells me that's a 4 ohm load (min allowed by the manufacturer) and I'm getting the max 300watts of...

    Noob Question

    I have an ESP LTD bass that has two soap bar pups and a 3-band active EQ, and I love the way I can really crank the lows just by turning up the bass. It's almost like having another volume knob, and I really like that feature. Now, could I take a P-bass and add a 3-band active EQ and get that...
